Windows God Mode

panels from within a single folder.

I think it crashes Vista 64bit systems. Seems to work fine with my version of Window 7 Ultimate 64bit.

what DOESN"T crash Vista 32/64 bit...? ~!!

Vista is a POS~period~!

I've heard the same thing about Vista for years.... Installed, or reinstalled it on a friend's PC... But after seeing it... I kind of like it... It's
like part WinXP and part Win7. I didn't use it personally.... but in that respect, it was pretty cool.

Rant (and way off-topic): It's too bad that MS stops supporting their own products after a time.... It would be nice to be able to choose what flavor
Windows we prefer... with Updates to make them bullet-proof. Some PCs cannot handle the memory requirements of the newer Windows OSs.

The so-called "God-Mode" folder is only moderately useful because of the advanced search facilities of Windows 7 - you just start typing what you
are looking for into Search and it soon finds it.

If you are of the "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" school of user, this is not for you

However, if you like tinkering with your PC and have run out of ideas for things to tweak, this is ideal!

Like many other posters, I was awed when I was first shown this, but soon tumbled that Search does the same thing if you know what you are looking
for!

I've since moved onto Windows 8 64 bit, and had forgotten about this until now. Tested and works on Windows 8 and like a previous member stated, it
doesn't have to be called "GodMode" - you can choose the name of the folder.
